This does the tedious work of writing interface microcopy: button labels, error messages, empty states, confirmation dialogs, all the little text that makes or breaks user experience. It follows solid UX writing principles (clear, concise, human) and gives you structured output with a main recommendation plus alternatives in a comparison table. The guidance is practical, like structuring error messages as "what happened + why + how to fix" or making CTAs start with verbs. If you have design tools or a knowledge base connected, it can pull brand voice guidelines and check actual layout constraints. Honestly, this is most useful when you're stuck on how to phrase something or need to quickly generate options that don't sound robotic.

What I Need From You

  • Context: What screen, flow, or feature?
  • User state: What is the user trying to do? How are they feeling?
  • Tone: Formal, friendly, playful, reassuring?
  • Constraints: Character limits, platform guidelines?

Principles

  1. Clear: Say exactly what you mean. No jargon, no ambiguity.
  2. Concise: Use the fewest words that convey the full meaning.
  3. Consistent: Same terms for the same things everywhere.
  4. Useful: Every word should help the user accomplish their goal.
  5. Human: Write like a helpful person, not a robot.

Copy Patterns

CTAs

  • Start with a verb: "Start free trial", "Save changes", "Download report"
  • Be specific: "Create account" not "Submit"
  • Match the outcome to the label

Error Messages

Structure: What happened + Why + How to fix

  • "Payment declined. Your card was declined by your bank. Try a different card or contact your bank."
